His decision came as a huge shock to many. Some even criticised him for this. However, many industry celebs like Dia Mirza, Sanjay Gupta have come out in his support.
Dia commented on Vikrant’s post and wrote, “Breaks are best—you’ll be even more amazing on the other side.”
Film-maker Sanjay Gupta reacted to Vikrant’s decision by recalling the time when Hansal Mehta left the industry. Gupta wrote on X ( formerly Twitter), “In 2008 Hansal Mehta left the film industry and Mumbai. Along with his family he shifted to a small village called Malawali in Lonavala. He recalibrated, reinvented himself and in 2012 came back with SHAHID his career best and has never looked back.
He further continued, “Do you realize the guts it takes to do that? To walk away from it all inspite of having a family to look after and the possibility of never directing again? It takes guts, resilience and an insane amount of belief in yourself.
